He described how water evaporates from the oceans andcools to form clouds. The clouds move inland where they rise, condense andfall as rain. This water gathers as lakes and streams and flows back to theocean in a continuous cycle. In the 7th century B.C., Thales of Miletusbelieved that surface spray of the oceans was picked up by the wind andcarried inland to fall as rain. In earlier times people did not know the sourceof underground water. They thought the water of the oceans, under the effectof winds, was thrust towards the interior of the continents. They also believedthat the water returned by a secret passage, or the Great Abyss. This passage is connected to the oceans and has been called the ‘Tartarus’, since Plato’s time. Even Descartes, a great thinker of the eighteenth century, subscribed to this view. Till the nineteenth century, Aristotle’s theory was prevalent.According to this theory, water was condensed in cool mountain caverns andformed underground lakes that fed springs. Today, we know that therainwater that seeps into the cracks of the ground is responsible for this.again“And We send down water From the sky according to (Due) measure,and We cause it To soak in the soil; And We certainly are able To drain it off (with ease).” [Al-Qur’aan 23:18]The Quran correctly describes the water cycle, and the origin of underground springs as being from rainwater. Obvious you may think, but the Greek philosophers did not get it right, suggesting that underground springs were produced by sea spray collecting in caves, which fed a great underground sea through the 'abyss'! In fact, the water cycle was not accurately propounded until the 18th century CE. The Quran, however, states (what means): "Do you not see that Allaah sends down rain from the sky and makes it flow as springs (and rivers) in the earth?” [Quran 39:21]as per u what is absurdity exactly..i dont feel anything , it is exactly matching with established science.</blockquote>
